Hi! Russian band Intruder, Inc. had been rejected. But this band is well-known here especially because of their gigs tohether with Hieronymus Bosch in 2008. As for the provement of existance of their album, you may find it uploaded here and even download it:http://metalarea.org/forum/index.php?sh ... try1500350

Alright, Do you know what album that was based off of? Their EP Ms. Mary Mallon or their debut LORE ? Also how come they were blacklisted for being "Progressive metalcore" when tons of Progressive metalcore bands are on the metal-archives

Sorry, no idea about what the decision is based on. Have they released new material lately? Is the style different from earlier works?

Also, pretty obviously because their "Progressive metalcore" hasn't been seen as metal enough, ie., too -core. There's a line, and they have been on the other side at least previously. Probably still are (not heard them, but because bands rarely make significant enough changes to their music).

Presumably it's more hardcore than metal, the blacklist note is quite old so I'm not sure what was evaluated. I checked it out and updated the blacklist note accordingly. It's metallic post-hardcore, a bit of metallic edge but predominantly not metal at all.

Hi, Zodijackyl, you have rejected my submission of the band Strain for genre reasons. I'd like to give you two more links to the band's music. These are links links with rest of the songs on the album. You'll find more metal riffs than anything else in those:

does this need to be resubmitted from scratch or can it just be accepted from here on?

Azmodes restored the band for you, but I'd like to point out that resubmitting from scratch is never needed. When a band is rejected, you can see it in your My bands page, and you can return it to a draft without losing any of the details, edit and submit again.

Can you please inform me as to why 'Fragments' from Ireland have had their submission rejected?

Surely, after taking influences from bands such as Death, Cynic, Atheist, Meshuggah and Gojira (ALL bands listed on here), and being identified as 'Technical Metal', they would qualify as sufficiently 'metal' enough?

Deathcore is a hybrid genre between death metal and hardcore. The degree of influence of either genre varies from band to band. Some deathcore bands like All Shall Perish are quite obviously on the metallic side of the fence, whereas bands like Suicide Silence are definitely more -core than metal.

If the band was blacklisted for being deathcore, it's obvious the metallic influences weren't pivotal in the band's music.

Why the band "Noisem" is in the Blacklist ? They play a mix of Thrash and Death Metal, and they appear on the site on their older name (Necropsy). Here's a link to listen their full length (alson available on the A389 store or Amazon).

Oryx made their album available to be purchased and downloaded on Friday and it will be physically available on June 20. I might have reacted and submitted to quickly at noticing that it was available to download, but I seriously thought the moderators wouldn't get to it this soon since I have some other bands in the queue that have been there since last month haha:) I'll wait.

Doom-ish/sludgily metallic, in that "stenchcore" kind of way, there's certainly some influence, but I'd say it's indeed more based in crusty hardcore than in metal. I wouldn't really say there's that much grind, but otherwise I agree with the moderator who originally blacklisted it. Pretty decent, though.

Back again for Oryx, I asked the guitarist, vocalist Tommy if the release was a demo, EP or full length. He told that it is a self-released full length. It's 30:02 in total and it's professionally recorded and is going to be released physically on cassette on June 20th but was released by the band digitally on June 14. I was under the impression that professionally recorded full length albums at least 30 minutes long are acceptable. Can I resubmit or wait until the 20th?Thanks!

Apparently, taking from loose info (last.fm), there are Two bands named Foreign Objects, one that is a Female led- pop punk band and one that was done by members of CKY before CKY was formed. Both are from the states.
